Abstract :
The European Telecommunications Standardisation Institute (ETSI) has almost completed standardisation of the HiperLAN/2 (RL/2) system. In this paper the HL/2 “central controller handover” procedure is presented, which is on the basis of the ad hoc networking concept of the HL/2 “home environment extension”. Beside a detailed description of the procedure, a performance analysis is carried out to evaluate the influence of the procedure on the packet delay. It is shown how the CC handover enables dynamic clustering of centralised ad hoc networks
